in It's gone, but was it any good?
I posted this on the Holiday Forum, however it is sure to go quick so may be best on here.


To celebrate summer we'd like to invite you on board the QUEEN OF SCANDINAVIA for a short break to Stavanger in Norway sailing from Newcastle in August and September.



Enjoy our unique maritime experience and a taste of Stavanger - all you have to pay is the Fuel surcharge and the Norwegian Environmental charge (£6 per person - see below)

Sailing on a Sunday and returning on a Tuesday between 12th August and 23rd September there's a whole host of things to do on board.

You get a short time to see Stavanger before returning to the ship for your cruise back home.


• 2 nights onboard ship in a Seaways class cabin of your choice
• Live entertainment on board

    If 4 of you are going you can even book a cabin each and will still only cost you £6

    I did this earlier in the year on the Princess of Norway. Excellent value and a great mini cruise :)

    Seems a long way to go for a 2 1/2 hr wander round Stavanger, still better to travel than to arrive.

    That's exactly what i was thinking, it's not worth travelling all that way for 2.5 hours in the place. Would rather pay the extra and stay a bit longer.:confused:

    Remember to add £16 if you require car parking during your break :wink:

    Are there car parking facilities at the UK ports?

    Secure car parking is available at the terminal. Parking costs £7 per 24 hours and payment is made at the machine on exit.
    For a 2 night City Cruise Break the cost of parking is normally £14.

    I have done this trip on this vessel. It is a good round trip providing the sea isn't too rough.
    Sailing times: Depart Newcastle Sundays 2300hrs, arrive Stavanger Monday 2030hrs, depart Stavanger 2300hrs, arrive Newcastle 1630hrs.
    For those who don't know the departure area it is signposted from the Tyne Tunnel, approx 5-10mins drive from the tunnel.

    By the time you've included your meals etc and taking into account the actual time you will be able to spend in Norway, it becomes much less attractive!
